ADHD Therapists in Madison, AL

As a Humanistic therapist, I recognize the unique differences and needs of the diverse individuals here in Alabama. As such, I make every effort to modify treatment in order to respect those needs. My goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental therapeutic environment with a balance of empathy and genuineness. It is my belief that when individuals are afforded a strong therapeutic alliance and relationship, they are able to learn the skills they need to navigate through life. Furthermore, when individuals can gain confidence and develop their faith they are able to gain hope, which facilitates lasting change.

Everyone experiences challenges at times for various reasons as we navigate life. It is my belief that therapy can be an effective tool to help individuals process and improve areas which may be preventing them from living life to the fullest potential. I strive to meet clients where they are at in their journey of self-exploration. It is not my role to solve problems, rather empower clients to gain insight and use strengths to overcome life’s challenges. In a collaborative environment where clients feel seen, heard, and understood, they can truly gain insight and learn skills in which to thrive.

Sometimes communicating your feelings to others can be frustrating, scary, or completely different than how you truly feel. There are also times when feelings can be too confusing to try to convey to others. Just like adults, children and adolescents often have difficulty communicating challenging feelings and experiences and that is okay! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I earned of my Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology and Master’s of Science in Counseling Psychology degrees from Alabama A&M University.

I'm passionate about seeing brokenness restored and helping others live fulfilling, rewarding lives. You are more powerful than you can even imagine, and we at The Healing Collective want to see that power unlocked and in motion. I conduct comprehensive psychological evaluations and neuropsychological screenings to help clarify the correct diagnosis and recommend the best treatment going forward. All calls/emails forward to our Practice Administrator, Bri Smith, who will respond within 48-72 hours (on business days) to schedule you.

Does your neurodivergent brain struggle to deal with the non-neurodivergent world? Are you struggling with a daily slog through exhaustion? Or with finding friendships and relationships? Maybe you have such high anxiety that the idea of talking to anyone is overwhelming? If you have ADHD you might not be able to keep up with chores at home. If you have Autism maybe you are consumed by making sure everything is ‘just so’. And if you have both (AuDHD) you might just feel paralyzed. Having a diagnosis or suspecting you are neurodivergent can be helpful, but may also raise so many questions you’re not sure where to start.

I help couples who are tired of having the same fight all the time and wish there was some way to recapture the magic they felt early in their relationship. I also work with adults who are longing for deeper connections with others or who are working through changes in their beliefs and looking for help dealing with the inevitable ways this impacts their relationships. I particularly enjoy working with adults dealing with ADHD.

If white knuckling, self shaming, pulling yourself up by your bootstraps and putting on your big girl panties worked, you’d be “cured” a billion times over. It doesn’t. At least not for me or people whose brains are different. Our minds race and it feels impossible to turn off and rest. Sometimes we use substances or other behaviors in a harmful way just to get through the day. There’s more to life out there. A more peaceful and meaningful life is possible. We need to go deeper and get to the root of things. I’ll go with you.

If you're struggling with waking up, finding motivation, procrastination, regulating your big emotions, or issues such as anxiety, past or current trauma, sexual issues, or ADHD issues; reach out and let's start your healing process. Together, we can work through those feelings of being stuck and let me help you develop the skills necessary to thrive daily. "The wound is not your fault, but healing is your responsibility."
